This has been quite a week, twice as much work with the clean up and then repacking everything, along with cooking for the trip. I made up a big pot of goulash so all I have to do is heat it up and a salad, as well. Unfortunately, the day we left, I woke up sick. So not sure if it was from cleaning the mice mess or something else, but it means less activity. I really love to paddle in the cove and ride around the park, so hoping by tomorrow I can feel good enough to do more. The bad thing is, a big storm is heading our way, so hopefully the worst of it stays north and we just get a few hours of it.
Last week for a break, I decided to use up some of my boho style fabrics for a quilt. I need a long twin for the guest bed and thought it would be a fun way to use up those fabrics and make a light quilt for summer.
This is the layout I made with them. I saved all the scraps and plan on sewing them into small strips and running that around the edge.
After I lay them out, I stack them up, from left to right in order and tag each row. This way I can sew them next week and not loose track of where the go.
Our campsite is nice, right on the cove. Plenty of space between the campers so we can sit and relax. We have had some sun and lots of fog. A view of the cove from the boat launch.
The lighthouse is down the road, so we go there for walks and at the fishing beach. Lots of fog, but beautiful.
On the way out I spotted this beautiful warbler.

Lovely pictures - hope you feel better soon. I do similar when sewing blocks in rows...

I'd probably lose interest about halfway through laying out those blocks LOL. I chase too many squirrels. I'm glad you did get to go on your vacation after all, it's unfortunate you started it not feeling well. Too funny about the Osprey. What the heck and why?? LOL. Enjoy the rest of your trip! Cold, cold, COLD here!
Wonderful pics as always. That warbler pic is amazing.
LOVE the simplicity of the quilt, but I'm sure it was not simple laying it out!
Hopefully you are feeling better.
